  If he could kill these humans, the clan leader would definitely give it more food and women. He might even let it replace that despicable aggressiveness to become the leader of the warriors in the Els. As such, he did not hesitate to launch an attack.

  The warriors of the Els immediately kept their quivers, changed to the gigantic axe and blade and let out bursts of roars, then rushed into the tent.

  Man Chong was at the front of the group. He brandished a double-edged steel axe he had forged himself, and easily tore open the radiation proof tent with a swing of his hand. However, when Man Man and the other two team members squeezed into the tent, not a single person could be seen. Before its slow brain could react, it was caught in the trap. The barrage of bullets suddenly surged in from outside, tearing the tent into thousands of butterflies!

  Blood was flying.

  Man Man looked at the green blood spurting out of her and her teammates' bodies, and realized that this was a trap that had been meticulously set up. Man Man bellowed while using the steel axe in her hand as a shield. Unfortunately, the area of the axe wasn't big enough to completely cover Man's tall body, so Man Man could only protect her head, heart and other important positions, and retreat in the opposite direction of the bullet screen.

  Only ten steps away, a member had already fallen to the ground. Its head had been hit by at least four or five bullets, turning it into a pile of paste.

  The intensity of the battle was beyond Man Man's expectation, and the weapons used by humans were astonishingly powerful. At least he remembered the rifles that the guards were playing with. The power of the bullets was not enough to easily destroy the tough bodies of the Els people.

  As he retreated to the edge of the tent, another member of the team also fell. Man Man was furious, but she knew that she wasn't a match for the threat of so many powerful rifles. Just as it was about to rush out of the tent, Man Man suddenly discovered that a pair of slender but smooth legs had wrapped around its chest. Man Man then felt an itch in her ear, as if someone was blowing on it.

  The next moment, Man Man only felt a chill on her neck before her eyes saw a dagger that had been painted black.

  A small wound appeared on Man Man's neck. She hurriedly covered it up, only to discover that the wound was continuously expanding. Just now, the dagger had not been cut through simply. Instead, it had been combined with a special method of vibration, causing the Barbarian Muscle to crack apart bit by bit. What was even more terrifying was that the dagger was smeared with the strange Poison Su, causing Man Man's strength to quickly disappear.

  Its huge body fell to the ground with a thump. It tried its best to open its eyes, only to see a quiet human girl.

  She was wearing shorts and a simple leather combat suit that wrapped around her chest, elbows, and knees. This combat suit had been customized to minimize the weight of her body. Even though she had succeeded in her first attack, the girl didn't show the slightest sign of excitement on her face. She stared at Man Man with a stunned look on her face. This was the last scene she saw.

  The sudden sound of gunfire startled a large portion of the birds, causing their hearts to skip a beat as well.

  Although it was a bit smaller than the barbarian beast, the muscles all over its body were more compact, causing it to look full of explosive strength. Its oversized fur was a silvery gray, indicating that it had already begun to move towards old age. In another five years, it would have to give up the position of warrior leader, regardless of whether it was willing or not. The deterioration of their physical body and strength was not something that the nearly cruel training institute could retain.

  But at least for now, other than clan leader Coase, he was the strongest warrior in Els.

  The appearance of the gunshot made his heart palpitate and he felt uneasy. Not long ago, it received a report from a member of the Berserker Sect that a human party was entering the's mountain range. Lin Yan immediately sent another team of around 20 people to reinforce him, but until now, no news had come back.

  Looking at the crimson sky that was like blood, the menacing aura seemed to have obtained some sort of premonition. The mountains were shrouded in darkness as the last of the light disappeared over the western horizon. There seemed to be a terrifying demon hiding in the darkness, staring at the Els's base like a tiger.

  At this moment, a series of sounds came from behind him. He turned around aggressively to see Clan Chief Coase walking out of the entrance of the base in large strides.

  Coase was a young man from Els, and at the same time, he was also the strongest warrior. It had a full body of dark red fur, adding that Coase was almost invincible, its clansmen respectfully called it "Bloody Dusk". It means that wherever it goes, it is the end of life.

  Coase held onto its long sledgehammer. This hammer had the totem of a ferocious beast engraved on it, which was the symbol of the Clan Leader of the Els. The warhammer was being dragged along the ground by Coase, causing the flames under the dark sky to be extremely clear.

  Coase could clearly hear the sounds of gunshots coming from the mountains. With a few simple syllables, the young patriarch asked the crowd what was going on.

  He told the truth.

  After hearing the overbearing report, Coase was very angry. It brandished its warhammer and smashed in all directions. Only after the entire mountain trembled did the enraged Patriarch stop.

  Coase spoke out in his Els language: "Dispatch the troops!"

  Sighing violently, Coase's power and bravery was unquestionable. But at the same time, a youthful impulse was unavoidable. Coase, who was still young, did not gain any wisdom from the settling of time. He felt the need to remind the young chief: "Human, trap. "Brave clan leader, the dark night is not our hunting grounds. We need to wait. Daybreak."

  Time had taken away his stamina, but it had given him mature wisdom. At least when one used their own language, they could communicate and express more of their own meaning. This was something that even Coase could not do.

  Coase released a few roars from his mouth, then pointed at the mountain range, before patting Lin Dong's shoulder.

  Mana knows what it means by that, that the people in the mountains are handed over to him. Lin Fan nodded his head, patting his chest as he made the promise of a warrior. Only then did Coase feel at ease to leave, and he glanced at the dense mountain area, then called for the guards, telling them to send the night watch.

  The night was long and short.

  Time was shortened in happiness and lengthened in dullness.

  The night was always long for the warriors who kept watch. They lit a fire at the entrance to the base as a light to disperse the darkness and to warn those who came in the dark. Most of the metamorph that were wandering in the darkness would subconsciously stay away from the Els's territory, but some of the guests were destined to come.

  It was the darkest time of the day, an hour before dawn. At the same time, it was also the time when living creatures were at their most exhausted.

  Out of the five to six Elven Warrior guarding the exit, at least three of them were already napping, while the remaining two were trying their best to lift up their heavy eyelids, even though they only had one eye.

  One of the soldiers couldn't help yawning, but something suddenly appeared in his gaping mouth.

  As for what was more, he didn't know because a bullet filled with kinetic energy had pierced through his big mouth and through his skull at the same time. The strong shockwave tore apart the muscles on its head. As a result, from his companion's point of view, half of the head of the Elven Warrior was suddenly sent flying into the air.

  Obviously, the attacker had used silencer material, otherwise the soldier wouldn't have been able to be destroyed without a sound.

  The warrior's companion was about to warn him, but before he could open his mouth, his head shook and he became unconscious. As a result, it did not know that its head, which was above the size of its mouth, had exploded into a flowe
r of flesh and blood. In terms of its brilliance, it was not inferior to its companion who had been killed.

  As for the other three soldiers who were napping, they would also be treated the same way. However, before the killer could pull the trigger in the dark, a world-shaking roar came from the entrance of the base. A Elven Warrior with silver fur draped over his shoulders rushed out, roaring at the spot where the firelight was aimed at. The alien warrior Origin of the base released, causing the tranquil night to also become chaotic.

  "Damn it, all of our efforts have gone down the drain." Someone said this in the darkness, and before the end of the dawn, the killers quietly retreated.

  That night, he didn't fall asleep. It was worried that humans would attack at night, and it proved that its guess was correct. If it wasn't for the fact that it had been alerted earlier, when all the guards were killed, the sleeping Els would not have been able to escape its fate of massacre.

  Patriarch Coase who had rushed over after hearing the news did not shout out loud when he saw the two guards' bloodied bodies. However, the one eyed on his face was burning with flames that were like blood. Coase decided not only to kill off these repulsive humans, but also to use the cruelest method to warn the other humans.

  Anyone who dared to violate the limits of the Realm of Myriad Gods must be killed!

  Chapter 381 - Iron Maiden

  Dawn came as scheduled.

  When a glimmer of light appeared on the eastern horizon, the warriors of the Els were all dressed neatly and walking out of the base in big strides, gathering at the small plaza outside the base.

  Although the equipment of the Els's Warriors were simple, they were still standardized. He was wearing a pair of combat leather armor made from leather and bone. In his hand, he was holding a machete. The blade was simple and crude, the blade was not sharp enough, the only advantage was that it was heavy enough, it satisfied the Elven Warrior's strength that he could not release. Only a few Warriors knew how to wield long-hilted warhammers. They were similar in style to Coase's clan chief's warhammers, the only difference being that there was no emblem on them.

  Not all warriors could master the fighting art of war hammers, only the most elite warriors in the clan could freely use such a powerful weapon. The warrior with the machete still had a rattan shield on his back. The shield was made from the old vines of the carnivorous tree that had been soaked in rain water, and the other five vines had been twisted into a single strand. The strands of old vines were arranged in an ancient manner, turning into rattan shields about the height of a person.

  Such a light and durable shield was difficult to penetrate, let alone a cold weapon. Even the firearms of humans would not be able to do so.

  rattan shield and machete were the standard equipment for normal warriors in Els.

  "Bloody Dusk" Coase also wore a set of composite armor made from a combination of leather and steel. This was something left behind by the previous generation patriarch.

  The thing that was worth mentioning was that those round steel pieces were hammered repeatedly at a high temperature to remove most of the impurities in the steel, representing the highest level of forging skills possessed by the people of Els. Although it was only two centimeters thick, shooting at a distance of 500 meters with a rifle could only leave a faint white mark on the steel. Therefore, in terms of defensive capabilities, this set of armor was considered the best in the entire Els.

  Coase held onto his long sledgehammer, one of his eyes shining with a terrifying light, inspecting the warriors in his clan. Five neat rows of 167 people stood in the square, facing the cold wind. Their tawny hair fluttered in the wind like burning flames, just like the anger of the Els. Coase roared at the warriors, to the effect that the humans had killed twenty to thirty of his warriors, this humiliation must be paid with human blood.

  The patriarch's words were naturally answered by the warriors. Els's personality was far from being called gentle, they, who were irritable and easily angered, would definitely take revenge. Besides, now that Mo Wuji had killed more than 30 soldiers, he couldn't swallow his anger no matter how hard he tried.

  Looking at Coase who was like a ball of raging fire, he seemed to be looking at his younger self. Brave but impulsive. As time passed, the fire in Yan Yang's heart had already dimmed quite a bit, but he still restrained himself and became rational. Ni Yan wasn't willing to see her tribesmen die in vain, but she wouldn't go to the battlefield without a clue. In fact, before Coase gathered his warriors, he had already sent two warriors to investigate the situation of the human race, including their numbers and position.

  Judging by the time, the Warrior would be back soon. Just as he thought this, he saw two warriors from Els quickly run into the plaza. They first looked at Coase aggressively, then set their sights on him. Thus, the two warriors ran towards him and reported to him in their own language. The warrior's voice was not soft, the crude Els people did not know how to keep a low profile, thus even Yang Dong who was standing far away heard the report clearly.

  Simply put, the two soldiers found that the human soldiers were gathering in a valley to the southwest. It was a team of about 50 people, well-equipped, and even had a commander whose figure was not inferior to the Els. Judging from the commander's appearance, he should be an esper amongst humans.

  A capable person plus fifty armed forces. This kind of strength wasn't weak, but it wasn't too strong either. At least, Coase did not put them in his eyes. Thus, under Coase's order, the Elven Warrior left the plaza. When he was young, he used a heavy, single-handed axe with a long handle. But now, he could only wield this pair of short-handled single-edged axes.

  Its power had been reduced, and it could no longer wield the heavy soldier. However, not only did this pair of single-edged axes conserve more strength, but the amount of time and effort spent on it was no less than before, no less than before. Putting aside strength, in terms of technique, this pair of single-edged axes was even better than before.

  However, just as it was about to follow the army and leave, Coase stopped it.

  The young clan leader shook his head and said simply in the language of the Els: "Stay, defend..."

  A bright gleam appeared in his single eye, which then began to grow dim. It nodded, took off its pair of axes, and sat down in a corner of the square.

  It was already old and knew what Coase was thinking. No matter how brave or fierce a warrior was, he could not defeat time. He who had aged was no longer qualified to enter the battlefield. Currently, he still carried the title of warrior leader. It was merely a special honor bestowed to him by Coase out of respect.

  But in full fury, it was unwilling!

  Coase was running.

  This mountain range was its home ground. When Coase was very young, he was a regular customer of this land. At that time, it was still small, but it was already like a small flame that lit up the entire land. It liked to run, and that made it feel alive. As you run, your brain instructs you to give your heart more blood. The blood would rush through his veins like a raging river.

  But now, Coase had turned from a flame into a cloud of flames.

  A cloud of fire that was enough to burn the enemy down!

  Even though he was carrying a 200 kilogram heavy hammer, Coase was still the fastest one, and also the first person to run in the front. The patriarch of the Els was not only the strongest warrior, but also the one who led the way. No matter what kind of fight, Coase would never retreat. It carries the brave, tenacious, fearless and other excellent qualities of its ancestors. Without these, there would be no "Bloody Dusk"!

  The group of about 170 people from Els flowed like a torrent through the mountains. When they felt the cold killing intent, even the strongest metamorph would obediently hide in their lair, not even being able to lift their heads to look around. The ground rumbled like a war drum.

  Very quickly, under the lead of the two sentries that were sent out before the attack, the Els people passed throu
gh the narrow and long mountain road and arrived at a relatively flat valley. The distance from here to the Els's base was not too far, but the mountain roads were winding and there were many twists and turns. If they had been careless, it would have been difficult for them to discover that a human army was hidden deep within the valley. Coase secretly praised the fact that the humans really knew how to find a place, but then again, this race was always cunning. Otherwise, he and his clansmen would have been 'influenced' by them.

  Coase had only recently learned the term 'probing'. That was what the "mother" had told it. The despicable humans planned to convert the Els people into their slaves like pigs and dogs. This was the reason why Coase suddenly killed a few guards and broke up with Asgard.

  Coase kept the messy thoughts in his head. It had already smelled the scent of humans. Bloody Dusk raised his hammer. They were only a hundred meters away from the valley. A mere hundred meters. Therefore, when Coase's war hammer swung down, the Elven Warrior released a world-shaking roar, flowing past Coase's two sides like water.

  Coase also roared towards the sky, and just like that, he raised his hammer and rushed towards the mountain valley. After a hundred metres passed in the blink of an eye, what entered Coase's eyes was an empty space.

  There were signs of a camp on the open ground, and a dozen stone-built stoves showed that not only had humans eaten here, but that not only had fifty people dined there. Seeing this, no matter how stupid Coase was, he knew that he had been tricked. Bloody Dusk spat out two hot streams of water from his nostrils and immediately recited a few weird chapters in Els language. Naturally, he wanted his people to immediately leave this place.

  At this moment, the mountain path that the valley had come from rumbled several times. The smell of gunpowder wafted in the air with the wind, and the entire mountain range trembled. Coase immediately understood that human beings had blown up the mountain road, trying to block them off in this valley.
